Have been busy using Timeline to build for our website exploring the issues of the Newbury Martyrs (1556, Newbury Berkshire England) for today's students of Religious Education and History.

Have to say this has been a fantastic software and has really powerul results. I have loved using it and hope our site will bring other people into contact with it, both teachers and students.

As to the famento software, my dad having died recently, I am finally getting to know my 86 year old mum as an individual in her own right and will try the famento software to plot her family tree.

Thanks people... keep up the good work.

Dear Marcia -- we're very sorry about the server being down. We do not believe any information was lost -- the server was just unreachable. We've written a blog post about it here: http://blog.xtimeline.com/2...

You should try to do your maintenance on a weekend sor weekdays between 1 A.M. & 6 A.M. Students have projects due and you put the website under maintenance several times in 1 day during prime homework times. Very unwise. My daughter had her timeline almost done and then you went to a maintenance screen again. She was working on it earlier and went to a maintenance screen then. Is her project automatically saved? or does she have to start from scratch?
